17.10 isn't affected

[Imre Péntek (pentek-imre)]

hello, I hope this one gets fixed in 19.04. Also, I forgot to mention that the live installers aren't affected only the installed versions

[Imre Péntek (pentek-imre)]

hi, I've just installed and fully upgraded
fcb7652dbabbbebe207f6d1c92eda29a http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/disco-desktop-amd64.iso

and I can confirm that this bug is still present on this version.

[Timo Aaltonen (tjaalton)]

what's "tent" mode?

anyway, the screen rotation sensor or driver seems buggy

[Ubuntu Kernel Bot (ubuntu-kernel-bot)]

This bug is missing log files that will aid in diagnosing the problem. While running an Ubuntu kernel (not a mainline or third-party kernel) please enter the following command in a terminal window:

apport-collect 1804568

and then change the status of the bug to 'Confirmed'.

If, due to the nature of the issue you have encountered, you are unable to run this command, please add a comment stating that fact and change the bug status to 'Confirmed'.

This change has been made by an automated script, maintained by the Ubuntu Kernel Team.

the problem is still present when ubuntu is installed from the 20.04 latest daily iso

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Thanks for testing that. Please report the bug upstream at:

  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues

and tell them the Gnome version you are using (gnome-shell --version).

[Imre Péntek (pentek-imre)]

Thanks @vanvugt, I'll do so :)

[Imre Péntek (pentek-imre)]

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/issues/1036
let's hope they fix it

[Imre Péntek (pentek-imre)]

I've just upgraded my 20.04 to check if the bug is still present, and it is. Can I expect it to be fixed in the 20.04 release version? Thank you in advance. (The gnome guys say it's already fixed, however I'm not sure if they are right)

[Imre Péntek (pentek-imre)]

live installers are not affected, and installed 17.10 is not affected neither, it just worked as I expected it to work. I know that for sure.

[Imre Péntek (pentek-imre)]

I figured out a workaround:

# apt remove iio-sensor-proxy --purge

then reboot, from that point your screen is always upside down, you need to issue

$ xrandr --output eDP-1 --rotate inverted

after every login. Now the mouse points to the same location it clicks. Hooray!

[mirek koc (mirek190)]

For me removing iio sensor not helping ...
My mouse cursor is still flipped like or your video.

[Imre Péntek (pentek-imre)]

as far as I can tell the bug is not present in jammy

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

Alright we can declare the bug fixed then. Although it might just be because of the switch to Wayland by default. Does the bug occur on jammy if you select 'Ubuntu on Xorg' from the login screen?

[Imre Péntek (pentek-imre)]

hello, I can confirm the bug is still present in xorg (up-to-date ubuntu jammy)
